Geoffrey Smith's Jazz
Geoffrey Smith's Jazz does exactly what it says on the tin: a weekly programme in which Geoffrey Smith shares his love of jazz, through an exploration of its great writers, singers and players, as told from his own individual perspective.

Each programme take us through his personally-selected playlist of tracks. It's loosely-themed; maybe a great artist, a jazz style or something more off-the-wall. But that serves as just the start of a fascinating journey to the heart of the music Geoffrey is so passionate about.

John Surman
Sun 19 Nov 2017

BBC Radio 3
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b09fmkgw
As part of Radio 3's coverage of the London Jazz Festival, Michael Berkeley talks to the saxophonist and bass clarinettist John Surman, who over a career of dizzying versatility that spans more than fifty years, has shown us just how many different ways jazz can be made. Surman's hundreds of recordings include solos with synthesizers, saxophone trios, trios with voice and drums, with brass bands and big bands. He has made albums with church choirs, duos with church organs and with drums, as well as composing music for saxophone and string quartet.

He has worked with most of the jazz greats of the last half century, including Ronnie Scott, Alexis Korner and Gil Evans, and more unusually for a jazz musician he's worked at the Paris Opera, with the Trans4mation Quartet, and on modern reinterpretations of the songs of John Dowland. He's been the recipient of numerous awards including the 2017 Ivor Novello Jazz Award.

In Private Passions, John Surman tells Michael how his love for music began in his childhood in Devon, when he was a talented boy treble. He chooses Bach's St Matthew Passion, which he first heard in a Plymouth church, and Beethoven's "Pathétique" sonata (No 8, in C minor), which his father would play on the piano. Surman's love of jazz is entwined with his love of classical music, and among his musical passions Duke Ellington and Miles Davis go hand-in-hand with Bartok's Concerto for Orchestra and the voice of Kathleen Ferrier. Happily based in Norway for the last decade, Surman has chosen a music list to help him through the long dark Scandinavian winters.

Walks in Two Worlds
Sun 19 Nov 2017
17:30
BBC Radio 3
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b09fmkh3
Theseus went into the maze, Orpheus into the dark of Hades. Heroes that they were, both emerged again to the light of the day. Alexandra Gilbreath and Neil Pearson are our guides to worlds galore, of magic and myth, and of love... for two people may share the same space but their thoughts? Who knows? How many worlds do we each inhabit as memory bends time back on itself?
So the familiar becomes the strange, with poetry from an Anglo-Saxon riddle, John Burnside, Vahni Capildeo, Ciaron Carson, Cecil Day-Lewis, Robert Devereux Earl of Essex, Thom Gunn, W S Graham, Selima Hill, Mervyn Peake, Warsan Shire, and prose from Paul Kingsnorth and Michael Ondaatje; with the music of Satie and Mussorgsky walking us through from one world to the next, plus Birtwistle, Britten, Chopin, Klami, George Lewis, James MacMillan and Jean Redpath.

Producer's Notes
Jung, Frazer and Campbell mapped out the mono-myth that stories our lives and underpins our sense of existence – the hero’s journey, leaving the safety of home, plunging into the world of the uncanny, facing down challenges... coming back changed. Using poetry and music and beauty as a form of spell and invocation, Walks in Two Worlds is a wander up and down the highways and by-ways of The Other – felt worlds, imagined, feared, exhilarating, funny – lived in and experienced as intensely as the quotidian. Mussorgsky’s Pictures from an Exhibition and Erik Satie’s Gymnopédies will be our guides, lighting our way through a succession of adventures, shifting our moods up and down and round and round… not least because they have accompanied me on many a journey to the interior.

Les Murray, W. S. Graham, and John Burnside tell their tales of magic forests, fey children and dangerous journeys, all transformative as Wagner’s hero Parsifal discovered. There will be other chancy places, where all is not as it seems and where the rules of the human world do not apply.

Then there is Love. Can two people really be one? Or, however close their hands and their hearts, how can one know where the other’s spirit is treading? The Welsh poet Owen Sheers, an Anglo-Saxon riddle-maker, Thom Gunn and the New Zealand poet, James K. Baxter stir our senses. Further on and further in, we come across sex between human and fairy… sad but very beautiful. Just listen to Jean Redpath singing The Grey Silkie or Robin Robertson’s devastating At Roane Head and Buddug Verona James’ with James Macmillan’s ballad-setting of a William Souter poem.

Or can we walk out of one world into another through sheer strength of will? Who in the depth of grief or suffering has said to themselves, let this not be so, let it be different. Warsan Shire’s heart-breaking poem ‘Backwards’ says it all while the excerpt from Vahni Capildeo’s beautiful Investigation of Past Shoes shows how time bends back on itself and joy once felt can be transmitted down the years and Cecil Day-Lewis’ Walking Away shows how our worlds overlap in time, causing pain, producing wisdom.

In the otherworld of the ancients, Birtwistle, Britten and Gluck will show us two old heroes; Theseus who went into the maze and Orpheus who went down into hell; both return but they are changed.

This is not the whole journey, there will be surprises and twists, moments of laughter, but Walks in Two Worlds is not a map, just a dream, just go with it and don’t worry about what it means. We don’t know and most of the time that’s fine.
